They were smart to do that, knowing it would be a colossal undertaking to achieve anything near a smooth transition. They still need to find a good coach of course, which regardless of $$, contracts provides NO guarantee to win games. The focus lately has been on the media/optics transition perception which they hope to somewhat manage or at least be in front of. Bama Board/Execs realized awhile back the inevitable and almost impossible task/challenge of replacing Saban while also placating bama fans. In any event, the process has been well underway and has escalated at a more rapid clip recently.

It's always been Lane. Thus, the PR firm is a great idea.

You have an actual link to anything discussing this, because this would be an interesting read.

This reminds me of the aftermath of November 7, 2015 when LSU fans convinced themselves that Alabama had to be on PEDs because of the way they man handled LSU.



Do you remember that?

Barely any transitions are seamless.


However, there are a few programs that miss only a best or two and they stay in the top echelon of college football.

OSU shows they can do this repeatedly.
Alabama had follies along the way to saban but the follies are over, and should not resurface.

Their program knows how to back the fans down and will get the right guy.

Or Coach Oeaux

Assuming you’re not trolling, this is interesting.

But I assume you’re trolling and I enjoy it. Keep it coming

I been hearing the same...cogs have been spinning since last season after some comments Saban made in private about being done.

I have a few sauces saying Orgeron to bama basically a done deal

I cannot imagine what coach would want to take over immediately following the GOAT. Sure you’re probably going to be set up for success for a year or two but that would be a daunting task.
